India got a bit lucky

First the balis didn't fall when Nehra was batting and India got 4 runs. That was unbelievable.
Then Petersen's runout which could have gone either way. I do not think I would have given that out, though some angles indicating bat wasn't grounded.
Wide not called in the penultimate over. Then Sachin's diving stop in the last over which could have gone either way, though was very hard to tell.

Great game in all.

The whole of India got lucky?

yes, this match was too close for comfort. on the flip side 3-4 mishits and inside edges went to the boundary. that's cricket at the end of the day, you win some you lose some.

I watched the last part,it was amazing from Parnell & Steyn.
Kallis should've been the MoM with his 3 wckt & 89 runs.

BTW,where on earth was Amla?I mean why didn't he play?

that was interesting. it was 3, parnell got the strike back, and needed 4 to win.

if it was 4 langeveldt would have been back on strike with 3 to win, then it could have been different story.

Agree about Kallis. The difference in performance of Kallis and Jadeja was way too big for the result of the match to have an influence on it. It is silly that if Sreesanth's throw off the last ball was half a foot wider, the adjudicator would have decided to give the award to Kallis.

I saw the highlights. That was one ugly throw, Dhoni managed well to break the stumps with sufficient doubt for third umpire to give not out.
